I agree, but the problem is how dangerous many of the chemicals are in dry concentrations.
People already mix household bleach with acidic cleaners. Imagine if they had dry sodium hypochlorite sitting around.
Bleach dispensers at the supermarket or pharmacy sound pretty dystopian but maybe shipping the concentrate and mixing at the PoS is safer.
Why?
Just how it sounds I guess. Things must not be going great when you have a need to dispense bleach haha.
Fwiw this idea does exist. Here's one site that sells it. That site has handwash, general household cleaner, dishwashing powder & tablets, etc., as well as glass bottles to use them in. Also something called "bleach alternative". All designed to be shipped dry.
Thanks! I'll have to see if I can find something similar in my country.
